U.S. War Plan Slammed

    Pyongyang, April 20 (KCNA) -- The United States and the south Korean bellicose forces recently drew up the "OPLAN 5029-05". It is a war scenario more adventurous and provocative than any of the previous ones they had constantly supplemented and rounded off for a preemptive attack on the DPRK, says Minju Joson in a commentary today. The keynote of the newly drafted "OPLAN 5029-05," the news analyst goes on, is that the U.S. and south Korea should play the main role in openly inducing a war on the Korean Peninsula. Herein lies the grave nature of this war scenario against the DPRK. According to it, the south Korea-U.S. "combined forces command" will undertake all actions from working out detailed plans to carrying out operations. Under the previous plans, the U.S. Pacific Command was to mainly take charge of military operations and actions. So, the "OPLAN 5029-05" is an adventurous scenario aimed at the provocation of a Korean war by the "combined forces command" any time, and it is a very dangerous document allowing a preemptive attack on the DPRK in a short time.
    The plan has made it all the clearer that the U.S. harbors in actuality the sinister intention to stifle the idea and system of the DPRK, though it makes free with the phrases of "peaceful solution to the nuclear issue" and "resumption of the six-way talks". Now that the U.S. seeks to contain the DPRK by force, the army and people of the latter have no alternative but to put up a total rebuff.
